Propane is a safe and efficient source
of power that you can use to heat your home and power quite a few
different types of appliances. Just like anything else, though, these
propane tanks and appliances do wind up needing repairs from time to
time. When that need arises, we at Bahr’s
Propane will be there to assist our customers in the
Zephyrhills and Dade City area. Simply
give us a call and we’ll send a technician right out to evaluate
your situation and address the problem.

When to Call for Propane Service

Of course, before you can call us for
help, you need to know that there is something wrong with your tank
or appliances. The most obvious sign of a leak or malfunction is the
odor of the gas itself. While propane does not have an odor, there is
one added to it for safety purposes. You should make sure that you
and your family members are familiar with the odor of the gas in your
tank so that you will immediately recognize it in the event of a
leak.

If you do smell propane, it’s very
important that you don’t do anything that could cause a spark. Do
not switch any lights on or off and remove all smoking materials from
the area. You should also be aware that, because propane is heavier
than air, it will settle at the lowest point in your house. You
should stay away from these areas if you think there may be propane
escaping from your tank or appliances.

Anytime you feel that a problem could
exist, don’t hesitate to call us. We will dispatch our technicians
as quickly as possible so that you can set your mind at ease and
enjoy the convenience of propane heat and appliances once again.

Empty Propane Tanks

It’s also good to be aware that you
may smell a strong odor of propane gas when your tank is empty. This
is because the odor can sometimes settle and collect in the bottom of
the tank. When the propane supply runs low, you are left simply with
the concentrated odor. While this does not mean you have a propane
leak, you should still call us right away so that we can come out and
fill up your tank.

In that type of situation, we will also
be able to perform a leak check to ensure that you didn’t run out
of propane because of a problem with your system. In order to ensure
that you don’t run out of propane again, one of our technicians
will be happy to show you how to read the gauge on your tank so that
you will know when to call for a refill.

source, but it’s always best to let professionally trained workers
